Haque combines commentary and study of relevant passages of the Qur'aan with primary sources of the Seerah from the period when scholars all across the Muslim world were writing about the Prophet's life and times. Haque stretches the narrative backward to look at the Prophet's ancestors and forward to his millions of modern followers. In addition to providing an in-depth examination of the Seerah, Haque widens the scope of his book to explain the Prophet's life to believers of all Abrahamic faiths-Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Haque draws parallels between the Prophet's teachings and what is written in the Gospels and the Torah, making the case that both foretold the Prophet's coming. He shows that all three Abrahamic religions originated from a single source and the belief systems and values of the three have more similarities than differences. These comparisons are clearly explained for anyone willing to approach the Seerah with an open heart and mind.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50355302138129,"sku":"CIN0578377489G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51003900592401,"sku":"NIN9780578377483","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0578377489.jpg?v=1750742847"},{"product_id":"pilgrim-holiness-book-joshua-j-whitfield-9781498211352","title":"Pilgrim Holiness","description":"As an explicitly christological witness, martyrdom offers a limited but vital description of the present within the various and unpredictable arenas of living, suffering, and dying. That is to say, martyrdom is not the tragic conclusion of some fatal ideological conflict but a momentary truthful glimpse of present circumstances. Martyrdom reveals, clarifies, and illumines what we take for the real. Martyrs are therefore significant for the church today because they exhibit the sort of truthful living that refuses the claims of history and power without Christ; they show the sort of living and dying that returns forgiveness upon murder, and patience beyond domination. Meditating primarily on the second-century martyrdoms in Lyons and Vienne, France, Pilgrim Holiness offers a view of Christian martyrdom that challenges prevalent misunderstandings about what martyrs are doing in sacrificing their lives. Joshua J. Whitfield argues that martyrdom is a moment of truthful disclosure and thus a moment of forgiveness and peace--gifts for which we are in desperate need.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51165688004881,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51165689381137,"sku":"NIN9781498211352","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52648086143249,"sku":"NLS9781498211352","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1498211356.jpg?v=1751148470"},{"product_id":"pilgrim-holiness-book-joshua-j-whitfield-9781606081754","title":"Pilgrim Holiness","description":"As an explicitly christological witness, martyrdom offers a limited but vital description of the present within the various and unpredictable arenas of living, suffering, and dying.
